Acne

The truth is that although acne is often associated with puberty, adults can suffer just as commonly from acne in the form of painful blemishes and lesions.

About Acne:

Even people who have not struggled with acne in adolescence can begin to breakout in their adult years, especially related to hormones and stress.

Regardless of your age, acne will result from clogged pores in the form of blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, and larger cysts. This is caused by the P-acne bacteria, as well as an overproduction of oil in the complexion.

Picking pimples. It is never advised to pick your skin, which could cause long-term scarring in the complexion. See a professional aesthetician for extractions and deep cleansing.

Excess oil. Using hair products, makeup, or even touching your face can further clog your pores to irritate acne.

How to Look Your Best:

Chemical Peel: A series of treatments exfoliates the skin and promotes cellular turnover to reduce acne lesions. You can expect minimal peeling for a period of 3 to 7 days.

Microdermabrasion: Vigorous, medical-grade exfoliation removes the buildup of dead surface skin cells and improves acne dramatically. This treatment will help to even out the texture of your skin and minimize clogged pores for a smoother and fresher complexion.
